7th-- & 8th-- Helping Verbs

Before we left school for our fabulous winter vacation, I played this particular song to you over and over and over and over and over again. People were screaming, ears were bleeding BUT you ended up knowing that song by heart.

Knowing the Helping Verb Song (or Jingle) by heart is imperative because it will help you get an A on your quiz on Wednesday. Below is the lyric video to the song. I have also copied and pasted the lyrics for y'all. Have fun with it!






Helping Verbs!  Helping Verbs!  There are 23....

Am, is are!  Was and were!  Being, been, and be!

Have, has, had!  Do, does, did!  Shall, should, will, and would!

There are 5 more helping verbs:  may, might, must, can, could!

Hello, All!

What a beautiful Saturday it is! After all that rain, it's so nice to see some sunshine. I am eager to get back into the classroom and see all of your faces. Hopefully our 2 week vacation has left us nice and refreshed so we can begin cracking down on dominating the STAAR.

When you come back, you are going to notice that we are implementing a lot of necessary changes. We will, of course, discuss this on Monday and I will post them on my blog that evening. It's a New Year and new beginnings, but remember-- every day should have new beginnings.

I hope everyone is enjoying the last of their vacation :) Happy Holidays and a very Happy New Year to each and every one of you.
